Boundary element method to calculate the heat dissipation of the surrounding rock in airway
Abstract
The boundary element method is used to calculate the heat dissipation of the surrounding rock in airway. With the basic solution of two-dimensional unsteady heat transfer differential equation, the boundary integral equation is established. By using the similarity theory, this boundary integral equation is made into a dimensionless form. With the discrete boundary integral equation, the linear equations are set up and a computer program is developed. By analysis the result of calculation, a series of curves are given to show the unsteady heat transfer criterion change with Biot Number and Fourier Number.
